I was trying to find a charger on Amazon but couldn't find one specific for this helicopter. Any idea which one and where to get?

That's going to be very hard. This brand of helicopter, was just a travesty from creation. I recommend you do what I did, just throw it away and purchase a better unit. Hope this piece of honesty works for you.

It is a USB cable that charges the built in micro lio battery and this comes with the unit. Easy to miss in the packaging...

If you have this charger,\? Get a better one. I couldn't use it either. I had to go to the official web site and get one there. Definitely worth the higher price.

Red light is always "on" when black charger (input=110-240VAC) is plugged into the wall socket. When you plug yellow cord with USB adapter into the black charger that is plugged into wall socket, the USB adapter plug will glow "red" only when the helicopter's battery is fully charged; if battery is fully discharged, it will take approx. 6-8 mins to recharge and the USB adapter plug will then glow "red". I received a 110VAC black charger as advertised and have been using it since May 2013 with no problems. I hope this feedback helped you. MG-Southern California

I'm thinking of checking my local hobby shop for a LiPo battery and charger upgrade. I have been looking at various 7.4V LiPo batteries and chargers on amazon but I want to compare prices with my local store before I purchase. I haven't gotten the car yet but word is the charger and battery could use an upgrade and that the car is LiPo battery ready so I'm thinking it might be the solution, although they are about half as expensive as the car itself.

Yes, I bought this for my 11 year son it does have the charger and he was able to download the video and pictures within hours after taking it out of the box. We have owned this for over six months and he has never had any trouble with anything on the helicopter and still really enjoys this product.

Your best bet would probably cruise the internet.Google RC Helicopter and sites will pop up. Can't remember if Amazon listed the manufacturer or check amazon site where the copters are and look near the bottom where shops are listedTerry

Looks like there is a universal charger available on amazon that should work.

The charger is agreat idea, I suspect it only works with older RC. I solved the problem by getting rechargeable batteries and a charger so I always have fresh and just charged my helicopter from the remote unit.

I bought a second charger that is the same one that came with the Quadcopter. I think it was $10 and free shipping. Also keep in mind that after you get all the new batteries charged, when you fly one battery out, if you immediately put it on your existing charger, it'll be charged by the time you fly through your other three batteries. In other words, you may not need to get another charger at all. But again, they're only ten bucks.

Input- 110-240v 50/60HzOutput- DC 4.6v DC 500 mAThe power isn't a problem so much, any USB cord port should charge it at varied speeds. The wall adapter is by far the easiest and fastest charge option... the tiny little port on the helicopter itself is the catch. It's size is very specific and not like any of the standardized Iphone adapters.

I find that using the power charging cord that came with the unit works best and that one plugs into the helo. and then into a USB port in any computer. I have never used a separate charging unit because years back when I did the battery became weaker in the helo. much faster. The USB charger is fast and safer.

I don't know if you can buy a replacement charger direct from Cobra?? I have never replaced one. We tend to lose the handset and have to buy a complete set.

The helicopter comes with a battery. Standard lithium. You can charge the helicopter from the transmitter or usb. Charging the battery takes 70 min. or so. Transmitter takes 6 AA batteries. Mine flies real good.

You might check at an electronic store. The charger looks like it might be a sort of common item.

When it arrives ,take the box to the park, and fly it! nothing needed okay!I have two of these planes! and i love them they are so tuff! see my videos on these planes! youtube/flintsttone810 p.s. yes it come's with the charger, but it is for the car ! To charge at home you will need a cigarette type style adapter.
